If you are a single Thai national more than likely. The easiest way would be to call a local travel agent and they would be able to tell you.

Hi,

How long are you planning to stay?

If you're just coming for a short social visit (for example, 2 weeks of vacation), then you don't need a visa -- same as other ASEAN nationals.

Yes, all non-Malaysian foreigners entering Singapore need a return ticket.

i don't understand why you have to break your head on the need for the return ticket. if you fly the regular airlines, a one-way ticket is often even more expensive than a 2-way ticket. if you're flying a budget airline, a return ticket won't burn a hole in your pocket. just get one!
